Welcome Bonez. Good time to buy a convertible! Post some pics here or in the Photo topic. Or you can wait till she's nice and shiny from all the work and new parts you'll inevitably put in ;-)
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
